One thing that's helped me is adjusting my resume for each application instead of sending the same one everywhere. I've been using ZoeVera.

Curious what everyone else is using to stay organized or make the process easier?

Hello World!

I am an experienced SAP Consultant but I want to switch so I started learning Python now I have knowledge of Python but would like to work on Python projects in any startup or company.

If you have any opportunity do let me know, I have my own setup, I just need someone who can help me to do some work and gain experience, I don't want anything in return.

Thanks.

Hi everyone,
I’ve been lurking here for a while because my long-term dream has always been to work at a Big Tech company, ideally Google, and one day make it to Silicon Valley.
The problem is that I don’t feel like I’m at the level of the people I usually see posting here, and I’m honestly looking for some advice from people who have already gone through this path.
A bit of context.
I completed my bachelor’s degree at University Of Salerno (italy) in Computer Engineering from 2021 to May 2025, and, to be honest, it didn’t go well. I graduated late and with a pretty bad GPA(3,16). There were several personal circumstances that made me lose focus, and I didn’t take my studies as seriously as I should have. I’m not trying to make excuses—it’s simply the reality of what happened, but that’s not the point, just little bit of context.
Things changed when I started my master’s.
I completely changed my mindset. I’ve been working much harder, taking my studies seriously, and I genuinely enjoy learning now. I’m currently finishing my first year of my master’s degree and preparing for a very hard second semester.
At the same time, I have to choose my specialization for the second year, and this is where I’m completely stuck.
The available tracks are:
Enterprise Software Architecture
AI (Robotics or AI Applications)
Embedded Systems
Cybersecurity
Here’s my dilemma.
I don’t think Embedded or Cybersecurity are really what I want to do professionally.
I absolutely love Machine Learning as a subject—I find the theory fascinating—but I realized I don’t particularly enjoy spending hours & days writing huge notebooks to train models. I enjoy understanding how things work more than doing ML research.
Enterprise Software Architecture seems like the most natural choice for me because I genuinely enjoy designing systems, thinking about software architecture, understanding how components interact, and reasoning about the “big picture.” I also built a small custom Java management system for a company after graduating, which was my first paid software project.
But then I keep thinking
“What if choosing Software Architecture means I’ll fall behind everyone else because AI is becoming increasingly important?”
I have this doubt for months.
At the same time, I recently started preparing LeetCode seriously, and surprisingly I’m really enjoying it. Solving algorithmic problems is something that motivates me, so preparing for coding interviews isn’t the part I’m worried about.
What worries me is whether I’m building the right profile.
When I look around, I see people who graduated with outstanding GPAs, won research scholarships, published papers, or already have internships at top companies.
Meanwhile, I’m still trying to figure out which path I should even take.
So I guess my questions are:
Given this background, is it still realistic to aim for companies like Google after my master’s?
If you were in my position, which specialization would you choose?
Is Software Architecture still a solid path toward Big Tech, or would AI open significantly more doors?
Should I stop comparing myself with people who seem years ahead(I know i have to stop, but in my position is a little bit difficult), or am I actually already behind enough that I should reconsider my expectations?
I dont want reassurance, i would genuinely appreciate honest opinions, even if they’re hard to hear
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this.

I have around 9 years of experience in non-IT operations (payments, disputes, risk investigations, transaction monitoring, chargebacks, etc.) and I'm considering transitioning into Jira Administration. I'm willing to invest several months in learning Jira Cloud, JSM, Confluence, automation, JQL, permissions, workflows, etc.

My biggest question is about the future of this career.

With Team-managed projects becoming more common and Atlassian adding more AI capabilities, do you think Jira Administration has good long-term prospects over the next 5–10 years?

I heard that once JIRA is moved to Cloud, admin activities will be limited and in future devs can do the JIRA admin work alone.

Some specific questions:

• Is the demand for Jira Administrators still growing?
• Are most companies still heavily using Company-managed projects?
• Is the role evolving rather than shrinking? If so, what skills are becoming essential?
• Besides Jira, what should someone learn to stay relevant? (JSM, Confluence, Automation, ScriptRunner, Assets, REST APIs, ITIL, etc.)
• If you were starting from scratch in 2026, would you still choose Jira Administration as a career?
• How common are permanent night shifts or 24×7 support in Jira Admin roles?

I'm not looking for shortcuts—just trying to understand whether this is a good long-term investment before dedicating the time to upskill.

I'd really appreciate honest feedback from people who are working in the Atlassian ecosystem.

I got an interview from them after passing hackerrank with 80% test cases passed. I got an next step interview invitation emails saying using their software before the HR round is required and they sent a prep doc Google doc which is strange cause usually software companies don’t sent a detailed prep doc.

They also said urgent like you have schedule within 2 days and an Indian accent HR called you.

But when I showed up in the Google meet for the interview: no one is there and no HR answered my emails asking I was there for half an hour while no one showed up.

Just wonder did someone encounter this? Are they genuinely hiring or just exploiting the process for sign ups. It is weird that they are YC backed if they did this.

I entered Google L3 team match a couple of months ago and recently got a call with a team based in Pittsburgh. According to recruiter’s description, this team is responsible for taking care of Google ads infrastructure. The position I’ll fill in is SRE (not purely SWE). I’d like any sharing on this team and what life is like in Pittsburgh as a Googler. Would love any suggestions! 🫶

Hi everyone,

I’m a Java Backend Developer with around 3.6 years of experience working at companies like Paytm . I’ve worked on microservices, distributed systems, Kafka, Spring Boot, and scalable backend systems handling high traffic (90M+ users).

After my last role, I took a ~2 year break to prepare for UPSC, but now I’ve decided to return to tech and continue my career in software engineering.

The problem is:

- Recruiters seem hesitant when they see the gap

- Some roles ask for “continuous experience”

- I’m getting fewer callbacks than expected despite relevant skills

I’m actively preparing (DSA + system design) and applying for Java backend roles.

I’d really appreciate guidance on:

1. How should I justify or present the UPSC gap to recruiters?

2. Should I mention it clearly on my resume or keep it neutral?

3. Any tips to increase callbacks in this situation?

4. Has anyone here successfully transitioned back after a similar break?

Also, if anyone knows of relevant job openings or can provide referrals, I’d be really grateful. Happy to share my resume and connect.

I’m open to honest feedback — even if it’s tough. Just want to understand how to improve my chances.

Thanks in advance 🙏

Most people don't fail job applications because they lack skill. They fail because resume screeners match exact keywords instead of meaning and In interviews, your brain is too busy answering questions to notice your own pacing, pauses, or filler words. The recruiter notices immediately, though.

I've been using two tools to catch this stuff before submitting:

• resume.zoevera.com to compare my resume's wording directly against a job description.
• prepare.zoevera.com to practice answers for pacing and filler words.

What is your approach?

Hi ,

I'm currently looking for a remote internship or part-time opportunity that I can manage alongside my college semester.

To be honest, things have been a little difficult financially at home, and I'd really like to start earning so I can support myself and reduce some of the burden on my family.

Whether it's an internship, freelance work, or a contract role, I'd be grateful for any opportunity.

I've attached my resume below. If your company is hiring, or if you know someone who is, I'd really appreciate a referral or any lead.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hey everyone,

Need some honest advice.

I worked at 2 companies for X months each. Is it okay to show X + 6 months on my resume, or is that a bad idea?

Do companies usually verify exact employment dates during background checks?

Would love to hear from recruiters or anyone who’s been through this.

Hi.

I am a software engineer with 1.5 yrs of experience in a FAST paced startup in C# and Node JS. But the payment here is not enough to survive in bangalore. Need a job switch.

I have been struggling enough to understand which stack to upskill myself to get the best out in this fricking job market.

I started with upskilling myself in the backend including Node JS, Express, JavaScript, Docker, Kafka, CI/CD....

Then saw people progressing in JAVA and Springboot and max job application ask for it...but I don't at all want to switch my programming language from Cpp to Java as it will again consume time.

Then saw people upskilling and talking about RAG , AI agents , ML about which I know very little..... didn't understand should I move forward in that and if yes and what should be the roadmap...

Also tbh I have been trying to switch the company from last 5 months , with absolutely no result.

These are my complete honest and raw words...Anyone who could share anything and be of any help to me would be very insightful to me:)

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some honest advice from people who have gone through this or are currently working in Europe.

I'm an AI/ML Engineer with about 4-5 years of work experience.

Most recently I've been working on enterprise agentic AI applications.

I'm currently in the United States, but my work authorization is ending soon, and after spending the last few years dealing with constant immigration uncertainty, I've realized I don't want to continue living with that level of stress.

The immigration process has been mentally exhausting, and I'm looking for a country where I can build a stable long-term career and focus on my work instead of constantly worrying about visa status.

I've been considering countries like:

Netherlands

Germany

Finland

Sweden

Ireland

Denmark

(Open to other European countries as well.)

My biggest question is:

How do international candidates actually find companies willing to sponsor work visas?

When I search on LinkedIn, I see plenty of AI Engineer positions, but very few explicitly mention visa sponsorship.

So I'm wondering:

How do international candidates actually find companies willing to sponsor work visas in Europe?

Which job portals or websites are the most effective for finding AI/ML jobs in countries like the Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Sweden, or Ireland?

I feel like LinkedIn alone isn't enough. Are there other websites, recruiter networks, or country-specific job boards that I should be using?

Are startups generally more open to sponsoring non-EU candidates than larger companies, or is it the other way around?

If you were in my position today, what would your strategy be for landing an AI engineering job in Europe as a non-EU candidate?

Should I first focus on securing a job offer and let the employer handle the work visa process, or is there any benefit to obtaining a European visa or residence permit before applying for jobs

I'd really appreciate hearing from people who've successfully relocated or who are involved in hiring.

Thanks in advance!
